THE wHIG's BIG FIND.

The Wing really supposes that 1t has
made great discovery.
Calling on Thursday at Judge Chris
tan's Office II amused itself with looking
over his copy Of Revised Statutes of the
United States when II found section 100,
which forbids United States court to
"enjoin any proceeding in any court OF
State" and so delighted was the Wing
with its find that It incontinently rushed
off with Judge Christians book to put
II in the paper.
All this the Wig itself confesses.
Though the Wing never heard Of sec:
tlon 720 Of the Revised Statutes until
Thursday, II has been the statute law OF
the United States ever since 1893, and
every lawyer and judge in the United
States during all the intervening time has
known Of II perfectly well
We wonder II did not occur TO the
Wig, before IT rushed its bonanza into
not determined, in constituting section 72O,
that ii did not forbid the United States
courts to enjoin parties from commencing
suits in State court. The Wig will
observe that the section forbids United
States courts from enjoining proceedings
that are already IN the State c0urts, but it
does not forbid them to stop parties on
their way to commence proceedings in
those courts.
Now If the Wig will read the decision
of Mr. Justice Blatchford, of the [. S.
Supreme Court, in Fisk VS. w. p X. X.
Co. 90 Blatchford, 51S), it will find that
he decided just that thing. In that case
the learned justice said
"The provision of section Of the act
of March 2d, 1893 q, L. 5 Statutes at
Large 334, 335), that a writ Of injunction
shall not be granted to stay proceedings
in any court OF State, has never been
held to have, and cannot properly be con
strued to have, any application except to
proceedings commenc d in court Of a
State before the proc edings are com
menced in the Federal court" And he
accordingly enjoined a corporation from
bringing suit in State court to have
itself dissolved when its continued ex-
istence was necessary to the purposes Of
justice.
The Wh3 will find decisions to the
same effect in Lottery Company vs..
Fitzpatrick, 3 Woods, 999; and Moore VS.
Holiday, 4 Dillon, 50 81 So that when
the Wing goes beyond Judge Christians
book into books at large, it will see that
its big haul is only water haul.
But perhaps our esteemed contempt
rary, like many others, is so wildly eX-
cited over the enemies Of the Common
wealth, the Shylocks after the last pound
of flesh, and Judge Bonds corruption,
that it will do like that Irishman who
was hauled up before court for whipping
an Italian orange yender and explained
that he was after redressing the wrongs
done his country by the BLACKBOARD
Prince Of Orange.
But" said the judge, "that was nearly
two centuries ago, and, besides, this is an
Italian who had nothing to do with it,"
"Begorra thin" says the prisoner, "let
the haste sill apples instid Of oranges

SHIPS BEFORE STEAM.
FROM THE SERPENTS OF THE
NILE TO NELSON'S LINE SHIPS.
Incomplete Records which Leave the
Character of the ships Of Antiquity
Somewhat I'm Doubt-The Use of Oars
Singly and Combined with Sails.

Primitive man must have very early found
out that as wood would float. all he had to do
10 enjoy n ride on the water was 10 place
himself on piece Of floating wood large
enough TO bear his weight Whoever made
this discovery and put it TO practical use was
the first navigator. Ii could not have been
long before it was discovered that floating
logs could be propelled by polling in shallow
water and by sculling in greater depths.
Then followed, no doubt, the raft, the canoe
and more finished craft.
But as TO who made any Of these discover
les, or as 10 who first used the oar or the sail,
there is no record Ii is certain that very
early in the worlds history mankind navi-
gated the rivers and lakes and the edges Of
the seas, and as almost all commercial rela-
tons were sustained by means Of navigation,
the sailors Of the early ages, as sailors have
ever been, were held in high repute as to
bravery and hardness and maniness.
Among the earliest craft Of which we have
any record are the boats Of the river Nile,
and our knowledge Of them is gained from
the representations thereof 10 be found on
Egyptian monuments a reproduction Is
here given, from which it is apparent that
oars, each worked by single man, were used,
but no sails. The steering apparatus was

much more ornamental character are figured
on the old Egyptian monuments and some Of
them, especially the war boats, were propelled

oars in two banks instead Of one, etc. Later
in Egypt's history sails were also used, but

anybody became little intimate with him

SPECIAL AND Personal.

In Richmond nearly nine thousand dol
lars Of license taxes have been paid by
tenders IF coupons; in Petersburg nearly
twenty thousand have been 50 paid; in
Lynchburg almost all the taxpayers are
using coupons, and in this city, and in
many other parts of the State, the same
thing is being done. When poor tax pay
crs see their rich neighbors pay their tax
bills by simple tender Of coupons, which
they buy for fifty cents on the dollar,
with the privilege of subsequently lend
ing the same TO other people, for the same
purpose, or Of keeping them and paying
next years taxes with them also, is it al
all strange that they should do the same
On the contrary wouldn't il , c more than
strange if they did not DO so, especially
as they also see that their rich neighbors
are sustained In their action by the
courts of the United States, the decisions
of which, no matter what they may have
been prior to 1861, now override those of
State courts? The license tax collected
this year does not amount to One-fOurth
the sum collected up to the corresponding
date of last year. Yes, 1t would have
been better If the offer of the creditors
had been accepted.-AleraHdria Gazette.

Arbor Day.

There does not seem to be full apprecia-
ton in Georgia OF the Importance of Arbor
Day. The Governor has set apart such a
day, but the General Assembly has done
nothing i'll regard to it, The State Agricul-
tural Society should also interest itself in
the occasion, because the farmers may be of
the very greatest assistance in repairing the
injury done by the destruction of the forests.
Speaking OF Arbor Day the Philadelphia
Record says that its observance is something
more than a matter Of enjoyment That
which many would overlook becomes the
work Of each and ALL the designated time
being an invitation and notice to all to assist.
In this State some of the varieties of trees
which were formerly well known have in
some counties been cut down so completely
that young persons often have no knowledge
OF them. Arbor Day is fitting time for
introducing new varieties of trees, not only
for shade or fuel but for fruit One advan-
tage is that a better system of forestry will
be inaugurated. Varieties best suited for
particular localities will be selected, while
new forests, growing from seeds or very
young plants, may even be regularly ar
ranged and cultivated. Forest trees are of
slow growth, but with the growing scarcity
of timber the farmer who devotes a space
to forest trees will leave his children rich
legacy in the future.
On last Arbor Day the children of some of
the schools were induced to take an interest
in the planting Of trees. 1t is to be hoped
that the interest among them will be more
general when the day recurs. The Agricul-
tural Society may build wiser than it knows
by also becoming interested 1t matters not
whether the trees be planted on the road
side, in the vacant places of forests or in the
orchards; the thing to do is to plant thera

the promotion of the fibre industry. How
much better for any of our growing towns,
and cities, too, would it be for its citizens to
build factory that would give constant
employment to one, two or three hundred
persons all the year long, than it would be
to erect hotel that would accommodate the
same number of persons and have it idle
three-fourths of the year,
There is no doubt in the world that ramie
and jute can be produced in the South to the
satisfaction of everybody. Ramie is very
prolific plant The Southern Trade Gazette
says: "Ramie is perennial plant of the
nettle tribe; though kindred TO hemp it is
far superior to it in value it grows like
willow and sends forth numerous stocks sew
eral times year the roots run deep into the
ground and the stocks reach height of from
five to six feet, according to soil and climate
1t draws its nutrition from the air as much
as from the ground The annual yield is
from two to three crops.
"Ramie prospers in a temperate climate
and requires light, porous soil, free from
swampy subsoil, which might cause the rot
ting of the roots"
What is wanted is not the fibre plants but
machine that will prepare the ramie or
jute for market with sufficient dispatch to
make it profitable. Machines and machines
have been invented and somehow or other
they do not prove to be successful. Let us
have the machine and the South would soon
have new and very great source of wealth.
